We use RHEL for most of our servers and private cloud. It's the most stable OS out there for professionals.

The trusted Linux systems with guaranteed support

  • August 03, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Continuous development and improvement happening within the community is wonderful, but who can provide a trusted support, its only RED HAT . The financial industry supervised by regulators, always advice to install Operating Systems which has continuous support. Auditors find fault otherwise. The enterprise edition always released with stable libraries and bug fixes are taken care almost immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing found so far to comment bad about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
to avoid Licensing cost of MS $ windows and hardware resource hungry OS.

RHEL comes with stability of Linux together with continuous support, which I recommend replace windows servers.

Best operating system to run applications

  • July 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Security at its best. We are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux on our physical database servers and virtual application servers. Our infrastructure supports an ERP solution. We have a couple of choices based on what the ERP supports, and we decided to use Red Hat Enterprise Linux to host our database, applications, and backup infrastructure. Red Hat Enterprise Linux is quite affordable and very well suited for enterprise solutions. Plenty of online resources are available if you ever run into issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
Other linux distros have greatly improved user experience and GUI, I think RHEL mostly prefers terminal over GUI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Resolving production server issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its the best secured operating system to host applications in internet.
